Users can access the wallet via a 12-word secret recovery phrase. GameStop emphasizes that customers should write the phrase down, warning they will be unable to access the wallet without it.
"This is a beta launch," GameStop added. "Please use responsibly, and do not add more funds than you are comfortable with."
GameStop shares popped more than 2% in pre-market trading on Monday's announcement.
